The Janome Holiday Open House

The Holidays are the season of giving, and we here at Janome have some fun and easy projects for you to make and give as gifts!

Be sure to contact your local participating Janome dealer for in-house sew-along events and hands-on guidance for each of these wonderful products.

For the next 4 Saturdays, come back to this page for a new Project or new gift idea where we show you how to make it step by step. Videos will be available here each Saturday at 11 am EST.

Join our Janome Makers and Educators as they demonstrate how to make these fun and easy projects while showcasing the great features of our Janome machines.

Each week we will upload Project Details, Instructions, and a video demonstration!

Be sure to join us for the Janome Holiday Open House!

What better way to kick off the Janome Holiday Open House Event than with Janome National Spokesperson Kimberly Einmo?! Follow along as Kimberly shows us how to make a special version of a Pincushion; this is a Pincushion with Wonder Clip Holder!

This project will allow you to practice sewing a scant ¼” seam allowance featuring the HP foot and plate system (the O foot can also be used) while making a fun, fast, easy, and useful project other than stitching standard patchwork seams!

Week 4: December 17th, 2022

Jerry Granata

Featuring the Continental M17

Jerry is a new member of the Janome elite; with his easy-going presence and incredible free-motion quilting abilities, it is easy to be in awe of this man.

In this Holiday Open House Project, Jerry Granata is tackling a fun and easy project that we can all certainly appreciate. A Thread Catcher! yes, we all have one, and if we don't, then we certainly need one to catch all those extra threads that we cut off when sewing.

Jerry Granata demonstrates making this simple yet important part of any sewing studio, but Jerry adds a bit of flair to this project by showing off his free-motion quilting abilities using none other than the Continental M17 and the AcuStitch Regulator.

This is one project you will not want to dispose of!
